Forever and Always

Sasuke sat in the living room, watching television. It wasn't until the program ended that he realized how late it was getting. He checked his phone, wondering if he'd missed a call from Naruto, but there was no such call. By that time he was usually home or he'd call if he were late. He waited a little longer, but he didn't see anyone pull up.

He was worried. Naruto had a tendency of being late, but whenever it was more than ten minutes he'd always call.

When he looked out the window he saw his neighbor and Naruto's co-worker outside. Sakura had been a good friend of theirs and worked very closely with Naruto. He ran his fingers through his black hair, knowing that he needed to talk to her. He quickly got up and walked out the door, calling her name and making her stop.

"Hi Sasuke," she smiled as she adjusted her purse so she could grasp the groceries in her hands. "What's up?" she asked, seeing the distressed look written all over his face. Sasuke was trying to hide his feelings, but he wasn't doing a good job. It worried her because she knew that he could usually keep a straight face through anything.

"Was Naruto still at the office when you left?" he asked, his voice trying, but failing, to conceal all of his emotions. He loved Naruto and hoped the reason that he didn't call was because he was busy or his phone died. He hoped that it was a reason he could yell at him for because the other alternative was so much worse.

A look of dread came over Sakura's face. She didn't want to be the one to tell him that he'd already left. It also made her understand why he was so worried. Naruto was the center of Sasuke's life, no matter how many times the dark haired man tried to play down their relationship. She knew that they were in love. "I'm sorry," she said sadly as she felt her heart break for him. "He left long before I did," she told him, seeing his emotions spill out as his worry soon was displayed across his face.

"Thanks anyway," he said quietly. She knew that he wasn't trying to show his feelings. He dejectedly walked back to his own house, his mind replaying all of the things that could have happened to him. As he sat at the kitchen table, staring down at his phone, his mind began to think of all of the good times with Naruto. One thought that plagued him the most was Naruto's wedding proposal.

Naruto and Sasuke were lying in the grass on a secluded hill. It had once been Sasuke's spot, but at one point it had changed into their spot. It was the place they came when they just wanted to be alone together. It was the spot that they would come if they were mad and the other would always know where to find them. It was only theirs.

The blond smiled as he looked at the stars. It was the perfect night, the sky was clear and the stars were burning brightly. He knew that it was the perfect night to do what he'd wanted to do for years. "So, what do you think the stars look like tonight?" he asked, though he knew that Sasuke refused to make shapes out of stars.

"You know that I don't think they look like anything," Sasuke replied with a chuckle. "They're stars," he told him; not humoring him by faking that he could see some sort of shape or animal in the stars. "They just look like stars," he stated.

"Really, that's all?" the blond asked, knowing that he was getting Sasuke right where he wanted him. "I see something more," he told him, knowing that it'd make Sasuke respond.

"And what do you see in them?" Sasuke asked. He was wondering how he'd ended up with a boyfriend that was able to believe that stars could say something. "Are you going to tell me that you've suddenly taken up astrology too?" he asked sarcastically.

"No, I don't like astrology," Naruto said, though he secretly kind of did. "Plus looking at the stars would make me an astronomer, not necessarily interested in astrology," the blond told him, liking that for once he felt smarter than Sasuke.
